Fireplace vest

Cardigan with a bow tie

Beached Santa

While it’s too late to enter the contest, it’s never too late to share a photo of your favorite holiday sweater. Here’s a link.

This is one of the toughest decisions I have faced in my twenty four years. At first glance, I would have to you go with the sweater/bowtie combo. The mexican hat/emo glasses really throw off the christmas theme,however……its like rivers cuomo meets emiliano zapata(not very merry). Beached Santa it is!

The “man” in the middle actually wears womens clothing all the time and his hair is usually spiked three feet in the air. I was at the party and he definetly had 3 and a half Miller Chills before he left.

Ya know, I got suckered in by the cardigan man, but after looking more closely, he’s dressing up TO look rediculous and therefore doesn’t really deserve our votes. I think the other two were wearing them ’cause they like them.

I think Santa on the Beach is quite tacky and yet adorable. It screams: “What!?! Santa in a Tank Top– Catchin’ some rays! Shouldn’t he be at the northpole, checking his list and building some toys for good girls and boys?”

I hope others will refrain from saying snide comments about the contestants. They are having fun and don’t deserve the harsh comments about them personally. Tis the season for a bit of cheer and kindness. This is meant to be fun!

Contest is for sweater and there is only one to vote on. Vest (not sweater), Cardigan (not sweater), so I voted for the sweater *LOL* – I feel bad for the girl who wants to walk around looking like a brick fireplace…

May I ask why people feel the need to put people down when this is supposed to be something fun?
Why make fun of the bowtie? He looks like a fun loving individual and obviously someone thought it was fitting for this contest.
Happy Holidays!
